THE SUGAR MARKET.

The Commercial News" of San
Francisco under date of Oct. LIST,
contains the following concerning
the state of the sugar market:
NThe local market for refined con-
tinues in an anomalous and unsatis-
factory condition as regards prices,
which have again been reduced, &c
on the 26th by the California re-
finery and &c by the American on
the 2Sth. There seems, however,
no inclination TO harmonic values
between the two refineries, the Cali
fornia list Of prices being nominally
&c below those of its competitor on
dry graduated and "A' sugar, and
&c on other grades. The term noml-
nal we think may very properly be
used in this connection, for we learn
that while the American is supply
ing current demands at its quoted
prices, only small quantities, INSULT
cient to meet the requirements of
jobbers, are obtainable from the
California. This is annoying to the
trade and to their customers in the
interior who cannot understand why
their needs cannot be supplied on
basis of public quotations and con-
siderlthat they are being taken adj
vantage of when charged prices
based on the actual condition of the
market. Manufacturers have an I'M
doubted right to fix prices to suit
themselves, but when these are es-
tablished it is unmercantile and I'M
just not to supply the reasonable re-
quirements of buyers, especially in
the present case when the opposite
course leads TO such friction among
parties who have no personal inter-
est in any differences between bust
ness rivals.
While prices for both raw and re-
fined are lower in New York, fact
attributed by Messrs. Willet &
Hamlen in their circular of Septem-
Der Pond to the recent stringency in
the New York money market, the
statistical position continues to inn
prove and stock, in all countries on
the above mentioned date show de-
cline of 1872, $50 tons as compared
with corresponding date i'll 1886.

RATS. RATSl

Brief combinations of words are
sometimes created by writers and
speakers, so full of pith and point,
that they are quoted, adopted, and
become familiar wherever the lam
guage in which they exist is known,
often living and maintaining their
popularity when their authors are
dead and forgotten. Other combi-
nations, without sense or meaning,
are sometimes hoated by brainless
idiots, and taken up and shouted
around by the same class Of persons
for time, until they (the combina-
tions) die of hollowness and absurd
ity. A stupid and pointless SAM
pie of this kind of thing, consisting
of repetition of one short word
"Rats! Rats !'-has had quite a
run among the hobble-de.hoy, hood
lum class of Honolulu. The near
est approach to meaning in the cry
of "Rats! Rats !" is its indication
Of "rats in the garnet" of those who
start or perpetuate the shout.

TUESDAY. OCT. II, 1887.
the UNEMPLOYED.

This city is said to now have
greater number of unemployed than
at any previous time. A majority
of these are working men who want
manual labor, which they are will
ing to perform and capable of per-
forming well. The question is how
to furnish these men with employ
ment. They must have it. They
cannot live without it. And yet
there is nothing for them. If they
apply at the foundry or other in
dustrial institutions, they find these
places full handed. In fact, with
surplus at the present time OF les
sened activity. If they go into the
sugar planting districts, there is but
little demand for the class of labor
they furnish. For every opening
there are many applicants. Com
plants and upbraidings are uttered
against monied men for not estab-
fishing new industries, to give en-
ployment to the unemployed. This
is easily said, but what are the new
enterprises which should be or might
be inaugnrated Immediately for re-
lieving the plethora of the white la
Dor market? Really, we cannot an
swer. AS matter of fact, we know
of some well to do people who have
created work around their private
residences for the sole purpose of
giving employment. 1t would be
more reasonable, perhaps, to look to
the Government for relief. The
Legislature is about to meet, and it
may not be considered, nnder the
circumstance, outside the province
of the special session to pass a meas
are for the immediate Inauguration
of some local reproductive public
works, procuring a temporary local
loan for the purpose which would
furnish employment for all willing
and able to work. Then there is
that tramway to Waikiki, for which
! charter has been granted, and re-
,peet;ng which so many promises
md pretensions have been made.

,ouid see their way to commencing
operations in earnest, it you'd be a

easily wiped out Morgan's eight-hour record,

twenty-four hour record. His distance for
twelve hours was 1877 miles to 1871 by Prince.

Dingloy's first hundredth milo was made In =

wheel several times, In all not consuming more
than forty-fve minutes. AT 1920 O'clock yes,er-
day morning Dingley completed his 200th mile,
and took his longest rest: He was OF about TWEEN
ty-fve minntes. When he rsmounted he made

$50 miles he rested for live minutes. He made

Dingley made MorHan's distance GIT niles In

This looked exceedingly doubtful for a time,
